Thanks for the replies!
 
When I was there, I just walked out because he refused to go any lower on the price. Then he said he had a new car coming in with no add-ons, but that the lowest he could go was $18200 OTD. I said, "No thanks," and left. I think I will drive out to a couple other dealerships to see what they have to say/offer. I'm hoping I find one that doesn't do the pre-installed add-ons on all their cars, as that stuff seems generally worthless to me, personally.

Hey there,
 
Save yourself the hassle of driving to different dealers and trying to find one with no add-ons, etc. The best thing you can do is request a quote a via email from EVERY Honda dealer within a reasonable distance from you! Make it clear that you will only accept a car with factory standard features and NOTHING MORE! Be specific and make it clear that you KNOW what you want!
 
I've used this tactic for my last two purchases and have done the same for a few of my close friends. Each time, at least one dealer came thru with a deal at least slightly lower than all the others. I responded to express my interest and reiterated that if it wasn't exactly what I had specified in my quote request, I would walk out without a moment's pause! It worked every time!

Received a otd price of 21,540 for 09 si sedan. This was including sales tax all dmv fees and dealer fees. Has anybody on this forum had any experience with pricing a si sedan? Good deal or keep looking. .

LX Tinted Windows [magicarpet] by bearcrkrd

I have an '08 LX. The windows are not tinted. I had that done the first week to the rear window and the rear side windows. The sun beats in the front window on my car, reminding me it is just a bare-bones vehicle, albeit a little dandy.
The windshield is kinda big, too, which really intensifies the exposure.
Some of my past vehicles had far superior solar protection or whatever you call it... Real obvious (to me, at least) difference.
Maybe EX windows are tinted?

I have an '08 LX and all of the windows have a light green "Solargreen" tint that is built right into the glass. I've tested it, and it blocks a lot of UV, although it's hardly dark at all. Perhaps our definition of the word "tint" differs.

It's not a refund..
 
The amount of the sales tax will be deductible on your 2009 income tax return.. So, figure a savings on your income tax of 25% of the sales tax paid... next April.

I agree. That is how I got my '06 LX Civic (auto., sedan) in June of 2006. I paid 17,850 OTD. I had a preapproved loan from my credit union and let the dealers know it. I was willing to pay 18k and got a better deal from the closest dealer. However, I did not let the dealer know my gender (f) or anything about my age. I was to the point and polite in my writing. The dealer looked completely surprised when I showed up to collect my car. I guess he was expecting something else.
